This is my very first attempt at blogging. I'm excited! 43 years ago I was in Ottawa, for Canada's 100th birthday. It was great but alas, I didn't take any photos, and I was on my own (well, with distant rellies who I have lost track of) so no one to remember with. The Queen was there (as she is today) and the Centennial Flame on Parliament Hill was lit for the first time.
Today is Sidney's day to shine as July 1 is Parade Day. For the first time in years I am not participating in it but I am going to be a spectator. There are 90 entries so it will be good and long. Cool though so we shall have to bundle up.
To Canadian readers, Happy Canada Day!
